Dealing to the tableau: Shuffle the cards, and deal them one at a time faceup into a single row from left to right. Because the row usually becomes quite long, you may want to create more than one row, but still treat the split row as one row.

Playing: As you play, match cards by rank or suit at any time using the following rules:

If the card is next to another card of the same suit or rank, move the rightmost card on top of the leftmost card.

If two cards are in between the two matched cards, move the rightmost card on top of the leftmost card, leaping over the two cards in between.

It is not necessary to make a match for each card you deal, but when you do, pile one card on top of another matched card, moving leftward. Once you've made a pile, treat it as a single card.

When a newly turned card gives you two choices of moves, make whichever seems right. Don't expect to create a single pile often; this game is even more difficult to win than Klondike, another solitaire game.
